Inventory week is plugging right along, bringing up things new and old everyday. Today’s lesson: “What did you do today? What did you like about what you did?

Also, if you ever suffered a depression over loss . . . → Read More: For Moms Only… Today we spent the day with one of our girls in Boston. We went to the Red Sox game (they lost) and then went to dinner with her and her boyfriend. We had great weather, iced coffee, shared kettle corn, and managed the heat. Our daughter is in the midst of making some life . . . → Read More: What Dads Do Today I was talking to my friend who has a child in fourth grade.
